Abstract:

The optimum planting density is not only beneficial to the field management of potato varieties with different leaf types, but also beneficial to the optimum yield components. In order to obtain the optimal planting density of potato varieties with different leaf types, the relationship between leaf type and planting density was studied. Two typical middle-late erect type potato varieties, Atlantic (uprush-leaf) and Gannongshu 7 (spreading-leaf) were used as materials. Five plant spacing (30, 25, 20, 15 and 10cm) and fixed row spacing (70cm) were set in the experiment. The indexes of plant architecture traits, fluorescence parameters and yield components of two varieties were investigated. In addition, the correlations between plant architecture traits and the yield components under different plant spacings were determined and analyzed. The field experiment showed that, with the increasing of plant spacing, the plant height, plant internode length, leaf bend degree, leaf area index, and the maximum photochemical efficiency of PSⅡ (Fv/Fm) increased, while the stem diameter, leaf drooping angle, leaf angle, and the actual photochemical efficiency of PSⅡ (ΦPSⅡ) decreased. Compared with Atlantic, the leaf bend degree of Gannongshu 7 increased significantly. Within the specific plant spacing ranging from 15 to 30cm, increasing plant spacing could significantly increase the yield per plant, tuber number per plant and plot yield. These results indicated that the optimal planting spacing was 25 and 20cm for spreading-leaf variety (Gannongshu 7) and uprush-leaf type variety (Atlantic), respectively, which had the reasonable canopy structure, the higher commodity rate and plot yield.
